A previous poster was correct Women should be excellent sailors as they are quite cautious and calculating about what they do ( sorry guys no divorce scenarios here please, just matters to do with sailing )which lead to good results, their natural physic will however hold them back.
What does "physic" mean? Are you talking about physique, like physical strength? If so, I don't agree with you at all. In the small-boat world, I don't think strength is much of a factor for most cats.
If you are talking about mental, as in aggressiveness, as related to the physical aspect of hormones, I can agree that in many cases women are not as aggressive as men, and that holds them back to some extent.
Plus, of course, we women know how fragile men's egos are, so we feel bad about beating them on the race course. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
